Michael Crichton's Jurassic World Quotes

“People were so naive about plants, Ellie thought. They just chose plants for appearance, as they would choose a picture for the wall.

“Human beings are so destructive. I sometimes think we're a kind of plague, that will scrub the earth clean. We destroy things so well that I sometimes think, maybe that's our function. Maybe every few eons, some animal comes along that kills off the rest of the world, clears the decks, and lets evolution proceed to its next phase.”
